Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I know, but it's a great game and I haven't played it in years since Microsoft fucked me out of my Live purchases. I've been hoping that one day it'll come to PC, and that day is today so it feels like the right time.
I'll also buy it on Steam / PS4 when it's released for realsies.
Dayumnnnnnnm i NEED IT

Heh. Yeah, I just watched it. Visually reminds me of BB a lot. Combat looks faster than usual. No hype for now though by me. It has major shoes to fill. I rather be pessimistic and positively surprised than hyped and let down.

Please bring the spark back Dark Souls 3. Bloodborne and Dark Souls 2 lacked that for me.
Lol you'll still sink 300+ hours into it

It's also got quite a few more achievements too. Alright they're not 'proper' achievements as they're just listed in game under Extras but there was great potiental for SC achievement wise only handycapped by the 12 and 200 points Microsoft was mandating for XBLA titles as the time.

This seems a lot more similar to Bloodbourne than Dark Souls 1. I'm not sure how to feel about that since I haven't played Bloodbourne due to not having a PS4.
i need to stpo watching this shit
but omg it's so hot i need it
april 12th, right around my birthday
i fucking need it nowww
How are you able to tell then?
The Dark Souls 3 Demo (Couldn't play that one mysef) looked simiar to bloodborne in terms of beeing a bit faster than the other souls games, but it stil looks more like souls to me, with the magic, shields, kicking and backstabbing and all.

April 2016 for Dark Souls 3 then huh?
Guess I'll need to save a couple vacation days.

Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 probably share the same engine, show art stuff is gonna carry over somewhat.

I watched a play through.
You're right that it does seem to have those things that Bloodbourne lacked but it looked to me like the shield he was carrying wasn't very important, he hardly used it. I was a big user of the shield in Dark Souls 1.
Bloodbourne combat is obviously very far removed from the shield/blocking playstyle. I hope they don't drift too close to it, that said I may actually love Bloodbourne gameplay even more (if only it would come to pc so I could find out...).

I never used a shield in any of the souls games. Id rather wait for the enemy to miss and then clobber the hell out of them

Bloodborne Gameplay for shield users from Dark Souls. You put a bunch of points in stamina still, just now you dodge and zip all over the place instead of hold the line.
I love From, one of the best developers of all time, but I can't justify a PS4 for one game. Maybe 2017 or 2018, but I may just skip this generation entirely.
'First on PS4'
You know that PC port is coming in hot.
Square even lied about the Dragon Quest Heroes, 'Sony exclusive in 2015.'

You're talking about Bloodborne right??
they obviously do and the 'feel' sort of carries on from one game to the other
i'm sure the final game will have lots of non-bloodborne looking stuff, they're only showing the first few areas

They say Fall of 2018. I'm guessing we will get the first chapter in Early access come 2025
It's obviously The Order. Gameplay first and all right?

Broken Age Act 2 helped me set my expectations extremely low for any and all future Double Fine products. I would've thrown money at this otherwise
dave is ok
aztek is ok
The fact no games for the Humble Monthly have leaked means it will be either amazing or god-awful
My money is on awful

If its awful, the service is done for.
IIRC they said this is the last Dark Souls game.

That would be surprising since you have to think Dark Souls brings them a lot of money.
Maybe Sony are paying them enough for the PS4 exclusive Bloodbourne?

I wouldn't be shocked if it's just the last Dark Souls games but not the last Souls games. Maybe we'll see a true sequel to Demon's Souls or something entirely new.
Space Souls anyone?

No, he meant it's gonna be the last Dark Souls game. They haven't said and will definitely make other Souls(-type) games.
This is the last Soul game as we know them. Namco said this wasn't the last one.

The fans aren't dumb. They can make a new game called Dark Essence and the fanbase will know it's "souls" inspired just like we saw with Bloodborne. Also there will be another series that Multiplatform. PC makes them too much money. Bloodborne wishes it had that PC money

Oh that makes more sense! I would certainly be interested in Space Souls.
Yeah guess I just wasn't thinking straight.

Did they give any hints about humble bundle like last month?
While the literal comment about Dark Souls 3 being the last game in the franchise was only made in regards to 'Dark Souls', he said that they dont want and cant make more dark souls and bloodborne games, so i assume it was meant in regards to the concept of the games rather than ip's.
If DS3 would be the last soulslike game i would find that to be a good thing, 5 games are more than enough for the time beeing, make something else and comeback a few years later when you got really good ideas to innovate the formular.
I don't give a shit, give me more Souls. It has yet to dip in quality so I'm confident it will stay great for quite a while.
They didn't say anything about Bloodborne. Bloodborne 2 is pretty much a lock at this point lol.
Could be cool. As much as gothic fantasy is a good setting for that type of game after 5 games it's getting a tad tiring for me. Sci Fi themed Souls type game could be fucking crazy.

oh damn the CAD dollar the humble bundles is $16.50
Some people don't care about the +1s. I know I don't and I'll probably put this to use. If anything it might motivate me to go through everything in my library and dedicate, say, 20-30 minutes to each. I think someone in here challenged them self to do that.
Did you read the interview?

Same here. Well Spacebase DF9 helped.
That they did and I hope that it's true. Don't think there's a series I like more than this one but the last thing it needs is to spawn a hundred pointless sequels.
I really don't see how a sequel to Bloodborne would even work.

I think I may buy as I want Towerfall and it has to be a good bundle...right? Also 16$CAD is like 1.5 drinks at the bar tonight ...
